@LadyPelvic I will say if you can get to daybreak it's a nice palette cleanser but if you go expecting cold steel systems again you'll be disappointed. It feels fresh though, like how sky 1 or crossbell 1 felt. New place, new area, new babies etc. felt much needed after 5 games
@LadyPelvic I agree with a lot of your issues. I also think doing the entire cold steel arc is a marathon that can sap your joy of the series.
Reverie learns from CS4, as does daybreak and Horizon in the "bloat" and how to better use people in and out of the plot imo.
@_justthegems This is a mood. Oh? Rean is your boy! Cool. Mines Lloyd.
I have some thoughts about pacing and character agency in CS4 vs CS2? SOUNDS INTERESTING LET US DISCUSS.
Lemme have conversations with fans. I wanna know why you love Mr Onion Priest etc
@LadyPelvic Everytime I see it "COME WITH ME IN THE TWILIGHT OF A SUMMER NIGHT FOR AWHIIIIILE" Drives my partner insane probably as the vocal tracks are my shower playlist ๐คฃ
@LadyPelvic My head canon is all the noble kids and working class kids have been getting drunk as heck since like 16 years old and it's only the well to do townies who haven't. Like Becky has totally necked pints.
@LadyPelvic I finished octopath 0 and I loved it so much I decided to give octopath 1 another go. Just finished off everyone's chapter 2. Its a bit of a slog but there's enough 'fun' character chapters to get me to the end I reckon.
@LadyPelvic And if they're of a certain age they get given an ass that won't quit if no boobah. Estelle is carrying quite the booty in cs4. Like all the women have to have a feature that's exaggerated to hell.
@TwilightSomnus Good arc overall - harem insistence goes into overdrive past amusing to alarming by the end of it. Overshadows all personal growth and arcs of so many characters for LOLOL GIRLS LOLOL but it's still a nice time to play.
@Noctowlkyo @Bloom_trails I'm not sure if it was the Professor, Schmidt or Russell but I know one of them makes a comment about how irregular it is tech grows so fast in zemuria. I'm convinced it's going to be a plot point in the eventhal finale.
@Noctowlkyo The best part of Crossbell is that because it's such a compact arc - compared to sky and steel taking you so many places, the NPC game is the best it's been in the series next to Daybreak.
Because its always them you see and the effect they have is always obvious.
